• Two 17-year-old boys were arrested at 27 and H roads Saturday on suspicion they impersonated police officers and harassed two girls in another vehicle.
According to Grand Junction Police Department Sgt. Dave Stassen, two 17-year-old girls were leaving the desert north of Grand Junction in a pickup around 11 p.m. Friday and were pulled over by the two 17-year-old boys, who were in a pickup with flashing strobe lights on top of it.

Stassen said police impersonation is a felony.According to the Grand Junction Police Department:
